What if the key to creating cleaner, faster, and more efficient cities isn’t building new infrastructure, but rethinking the way we move what we already have? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Richard Savoie, co-founder of Adiona, whose AI-powered logistics platform is transforming the way goods travel through urban environments.
Richard’s background as a patent holder and mentor in the medical device field gives him a unique perspective on precision, quality and human-centered design. At Adiona he applies the same discipline to logistics, allowing delivery networks to function smarter, leaner and more sustainably. Its FlexOps platform uses AI to optimize routes, model EV fleet conversions and create digital twins of operations so companies can reduce emissions and increase efficiency – without replacing the people who make it all work.
In our conversation, Richard explains why he believes in a humanistic approach to AI that empowers drivers, dispatchers and warehouse workers rather than automating them. We also explore how Adiona’s scenario modeling is helping global brands like Coca-Cola and Australia Post reduce costs while meeting 2030 sustainability goals, and what the future could hold as AI and robotics begin to work together for last-mile delivery.
Could the next big breakthrough in sustainability come from redesigning the routes that already exist? And how can AI reshape the logistics networks that keep our world moving? After listening, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
